Adult Christmas Party Games To Keep Your Party Flowin'

When creating a fun-filled Christmas birthday party or a warm, family Christmas get together, here's some games with a Christmas birthday flavor to consider:

#1 picks a gift and unwraps it. #2 may steal #1's ornament or select one from the pile. If #2 takes #1's ornament, then #1 must select another gift from the pile. #3 may steal #1 or #2's ornament or select a gift from the pile. The game continues in this fashion until everyone has an ornament.

Variation: - No one unwraps the ornaments until the end of the game.

WHITE ELEPHANT GIFT EXCHANGE - Have all of your guests bring a wrapped, white elephant gift. Then proceed to play the game as noted above in the Ornament Gift Exchange.

HOW MANY ORNAMENTS - Fill a clear vase with mini Christmas ornaments. As guests arrive, have them write down how many red, green, blue, yellow, etc. ornaments are in the container, or how many ornaments in total are in the container. Whoever guesses the closest shall be the winner(s).

NAME THAT HOLIDAY TUNE - Divide your guests into teams. Play a few notes of a holiday song. Whoever is the first person to ring their bell and identify the song correctly receives a point for their team. Repeat the process and whichever team has the most points at the end of the game wins.

HOW MANY CHRISTMAS SONGS DO YOU KNOW? - Give your guests 1-2 minutes to come up with a list of Christmas songs. Whoever has the most, shall be the winner.

TWO TRUTHS & A LIE CHRISTMAS STYLE - While keeping a straight face, each player makes three statements, two are truth and one is a lie. Everyone else must try to figure out the lie. Here's a few examples of questions you could ask:

What is the worst present you ever received? How old were you when you stopped believing in Santa Claus? What is the best present you ever received? What have you always wanted for Christmas, but never received? What is the best thing you ever did for someone else for Christmas? What is your favorite thing to do on Christmas?

REINDEER ANTLER GAME - Divide your guests into teams and give each team a pair of stretchy pantyhose, eight balloons and a red clown nose. On "Go", everyone blows up their balloons and stuffs four balloons into each leg of the pantyhose to create antlers. Then one lucky teammate must wear the antlers and the "Rudolph" nose while singing "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer."

WRAP THAT PRESENT - Divide your guests into teams. Give each team a card table, an empty box, wrapping paper, scissors, tape, ribbons, and bows. On "Go", the first person of each team goes to their table and wraps their box with paper. The game continues with each teammate wrapping their box with a separate layer of wrapping paper. The last person on the team to wrap the box, must also add ribbons and bows. Whichever team gets through all of their teammates first are the winners.

UNWRAP THAT PRESENT #1 - Wrap a sturdy box with numerous layers of wrapping paper. Periodically use masking, duct, or mailing tape to secure the paper, which will make unwrapping a little more challenging. The number of layers can be determined by the number of people attending. If you're having a large group, you'll want to have several boxes available and split your guests into smaller groups to play the game.

Place the wrapped box in the center of the group. Have guests start rolling two dice. The first person to roll doubles, must unwrap one layer of paper using only one hand. Meanwhile, the other players continue to roll the dice. Once a double is rolled again, the person unwrapping the present must stop and the person who rolled the double then starts unwrapping the gift. The first person to unwrap the gift completely, shall be the winner.

UNWRAP THAT PRESENT #2 - Divide your guests into teams and place a stack of wrapped presents on each team's table. Be sure to use lots of masking, duct, and packing tape. On "Go," the first person of each team runs to the table, unwraps a present, throws the trash into their trash bag, and runs back to their teammates. The game continues until one team unwraps all of their presents.
